Helmut Schiessel studied physics at the
Albert-Ludwigs University, Freiburg, Germany. There he earned his
PhD under the guidance of Prof. A. Blumen in the Group for
Theoretical Polymer Physics. After graduating in 1997, he worked as
a postdoc with Prof. P. A. Pincus at the University of California,
Santa Barbara. Then, he was a joint postdoc with Profs. W. M.
Gelbart and R. Bruinsma at the University of California, Los
Angeles. In 2000, he joined the Theory Group of the Max Planck
Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz, Germany, where he was in
charge of a biophysics research project. From 2005 to 2020, Prof.
Schiessel headed the chair of Theoretical Physics of Life
Processes in the Instituut-Lorentz at Leiden University, the
Netherlands. In 2021, he joined the Cluster of
Excellence Physics of Life at the Technical University in Dresden,
Germany, where he heads the Theoretical
Physics of Living Matter Group.
